Fish Pie

January 17, 2013 By Lokness 9 Comments

This Fish Pie is one of my favorite comfort dishes! Creamy mashed potatoes with sweet vegetables, savory cod & crispy cheese topping. You can serve this as a main dish with a side salad.

I stumbled upon this fish pie recipe online a while back. I just love it! It is like a shepherd’s pie, but with fish. I searched around online and found out that fish pie is a traditional British dish. Although this recipe is not completely the same as the original one. This is absolutely delicious. Flakey fish with creamy mashed potatoes and sweet vegetables all in one dish. Hope you will like this!

Ingredients

  • 5 medium red potatoes (peeled and halved)
  • ¾ pound cod (cut into ½-inch cubes)
  • ¼ teaspoon lemon juice
  • ½ tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus ½ tablespoon for vegetables
  • ½ yellow onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 carrot (cut into pea-sized)
  • ½ cup frozen peas
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • dash of paprika
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (finely chopped)
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
  • salt
  • ground black pepper

Instructions

  • In a medium pot with cold water, put in the potatoes and make sure the water cover the potatoes completely. Season with salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water starts to boil, simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, about 35 – 45 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (177˚C).
  • Meanwhile, combine the cod with the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • In a medium pan over medium heat, warm up the olive oil and ½ tablespoon butter. Add the onions and carrots and cook until the onions are softened. Stir in the peas. Add the cod and cook through. While cooking the fish, break and flake 1/3 of them.
  • When the potatoes are ready, drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mashed the potatoes with a masher or big spoon until there is no lump. Stir in the milk and 2 tablespoons butter. Season with salt and pepper. Add a dash of paprika. Mix well. The mashed potatoes should be thicker than normal.
  • Put the fish mixture to the mashed potatoes. Add parsley. Gently mix everything together. Season with salt and pepper to your own taste. Transfer to your choice of casserole dish. Top with parmesan cheese.
  • Bake in the oven for 15 – 20 minutes or bake in the broiler for 2 – 4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the color is golden brown. Cool a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  1. Cod is my favorite fish, so I picked that. But you can use any fish you like.
  2. I love to have a lot of fish in this dish, but you can use just ½ pound.
  3. Leftover can be stored in an airtight container. You can either reheat in microwave or transfer to an oven-safe container and bake in 325˚F (165˚C) oven for 15 minutes.

    This looks really delicious – I like the idea of individual dishes. I made fish pie today and used celeriac instead of potato for the mashed topping – it was pretty good 🙂

      I love individual dishes! They are cute and great portion control.
      Oh celery root! Although I have heard of it many times, I haven’t tried it yet. Got to try that soon.

    This recipe sounds quite good, if it possible to steam instead of bake or bake in a small toast oven.

      You can skip the baking part. Everything is cooked already, so the baking is not really necessary. It is just a good way to melt the cheese. Enjoy.

        The only cheese that I used is Parmesan. I usually pick grated Parmesan, but you can also use shredded one too.

Looking for a refreshing beverage this summer? Thi Looking for a refreshing beverage this summer? This Thai Iced Tea w/ Lime (Cha Ma Nao) can’t be more perfect. It’s made w/ the same tea mix like Thai iced tea, but without dairy & with lime juice. Seriously much better than Thai iced tea in my opinion! Light, little sour & little sweet!

Juicy, flavorful, & just amazing!

A totally unexpected trip to Miami. Didn’t find A totally unexpected trip to Miami. Didn’t find out until 36 hours before departure, Bryan had to fill in for a co-worker.
